Ideas for outreach examples tutorials website content

Examples

• Example using multivariate distributions (and use of matrices)
• Mixture models
• More complex hierarchical models (e.g. crossed-effects)

Cheatsheet(s)

Maybe a first Markdown version, to later move to something like the ones from RStudio? they actually provide a ppt template, but I like more a LaTeX poster

1. NIMBLE language for writing models (assuming that one does not know BUGS at all); maybe a scheme of chapter 5 from the user manual
2. Model building in NIMBLE: commands to create, compile, configure and run a model
   • difference between fast&default and customized
   • recompile MCMC after you change configuration

Website-content

• Redesign???
• User contributed code
• papers on/using NIMBLE

Document case studies

Something like Stan case studies

• Markdown example
• Github repo
• reference paper (if any)
